Buying streak — 11 quarters in a row
For 11 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added SCHK than sold it. That's a consistent pattern of professional buying — not a one-time trade. When institutions keep buying quarter after quarter, it usually means they see a multi-year opportunity, not just a short-term momentum flip.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
232 hedge funds hold SCHK right now — the highest count in 3.0 years. When ownership is this concentrated, any bad news can trigger a chain reaction: one big fund sells, others follow. This is a classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +21% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+40 new funds entered over the past year (+21% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 61% buying
116 buying74 selling
Last quarter: 116 funds were net buyers (27 opened a brand new position + 89 added to an existing one). Only 74 were sellers (51 trimmed + 23 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-9 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 31 → 23 → 36 → 27. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.

📈

35 → 31 → 23 → 36 → 27 new funds/Q

■ 49% veterans
■ 21% 1-2yr
■ 31% new
Of 232 current holders: 113 (49%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.

Smaller funds dominant — 11% AUM from top-100
11% from top-100 AUM funds
19 of 232 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 11% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
Exit risk score 3.8/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
